Your intrepid roadie completed yesterday's Snowdonia Marathon in respectable 3:57:37 and was fully operational today in Deal for Roadie duties.
The weather totally fulfilled it forecast with horizonal rain and gusts of 60mph (there is about a inch of water in my rucksack still) and according to my garmin i did 4082ft of accent ... the last six miles were the killer with a three mile steep climb followed with equally steep 1.5mile drop down a trackway (I wish I had my fell shoes for this bit!), then just to add to the fun the organisers had included a dog-leg in LLanberis with another hill in it to the finish....
Thoughly soaked, thoughly enjoyed it!
